Her work in video, sound, performance, and web-based media is often public and situation or site specific. Recent projects have explored the qualities of false remembrances of political events and the opening of the long-fabled ocean route, the Northwest Passage. Recent work has been presented with the Flux Factory and Art in Odd Places in New York and Provisions Library in Washington, DC.
